Chelsea 'looking at experienced managers' to replace Frank Lampard as pressure builds on boss following abject defeat at Leicester

Chelsea are reportedly looking at experienced managers to replace Frank Lampard as the pressure continues to ramp up on the Blues boss.

A limp sixth defeat of the season at Leicester on Tuesday night left Chelsea in eighth place, despite a summer spend of £230m that was expected to see them challenge for the title.

And alternatives with more nous at the top level are being lined up to rescue Chelsea's season, according to The Athletic.

First-half goals from Wilfred Ndidi and James Maddison at the King Power Stadium lifted Leicester to the top of the Premier League — nine points clear of Lampard's men, who are now five points adrift of the Champions League places.
